Part B- Video • Create an eight (8) minute, video presentation using PPT to answer the following: 1. Analyze the trends in the communication protocols and relate the concepts with what you have learnt in data and networking to date. 2. Which protocol stacks appear to be more important when compared to other protocol stacks for this industry? 3. If this industry trend is to be adopted by a company, what recommendations will you make for the company? These recommendations should take advantage of the industry trend. The recommendations should be well supported and clearly justified. Slide Content Slide One – Cover Slide with Title of the presentation, your name, your student number and Lecturer’s name.
